After it was publicly known the complaint filed by a worker of the Congress of the Republic against parliamentarian Freddy Díaz Monago, the bench of Alliance for Progress (APP) announced the definitive separation of the legislator from the ranks of this political group.
This decision was revealed through a statement released by APP’s social networks, in which they expressed their condemnation of this act of sexual violence and asked that both the Public ministry and the Judiciary act quickly in relation to the facts presented.

Thus, given the circumstances, the Alianza para el Progreso caucus asked the Parliamentary Ethics Commission of Congress to convene an emergency meeting, so that the imposition of the maximum sanction that Díaz Monago could receive can be discussed.
Likewise, APP legislators indicated that they will provide the necessary support to the victim, as well as its support and solidarity in relation to the reported situation.
